Inspiring message from American citizen: “You are so lucky to have Duterte. So just take care of him by showing your support

Duterte have been getting the
attention of the International stage since he stepped into office. Following
the increasing death toll on his ongoing war against illegal drugs and
criminality, many human rights advocates from the United Nations, United States
and European Union called out the President on alleged extrajudicial killings
which have been taking place.

However, Duterte remained unfazed by
these issues and pursue with his self-deadlined promised of eradicating the
country's problems linked to illegal drugs. He showed other countries his
tougher position in being accountable to the Filipino people not to anyone and
have made harsh pronouncements against them.

But amid everything, an American
netizen made rounds online as he complimented President Rodrigo Duterte. Seen
to be wearing a baller with Duterte's name, took the internet by storm and was
lauded by many Duterte supporter. It was netizen Ian Lapayo who uploaded the
picture. He also shared their short conversation in the caption which goes:

"Yesterday, as we were riding a
Ceres Bus #8410 bound for Cebu, City, I noticed this gentleman is wearing a
"DUTERTE" baller. Out of my curiousity, I asked him why he's wearing
that and where did he got that baller (kapal muks! hahaha). He just replied,
"I didn't see this guy personally (referring to Pres. Duterte) but I knew
him through world news and social media, and I find him really great as a
president in your country. We, Americans, are hoping to have this kind of
leader in our country who is very straight forward and a love to his country.
You are so lucky to have Duterte as your president. So just take care of him by
showing your support and love to him."

I just smiled at him and at the back
of my mind, "WOW! Buti pa ibang lahi, na appreciate nila presidente natin,
ang iba jan kung maka bash, WAGAS!"
